6 Ups And Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Feb 23)

3. A Win That Helps No One

Last week, WWE reunited a tag team they never should have broken up, the Primetime Players. Monday, the duo got a shot at the team that assaulted them the previous week, the Ascension. What unfolded was wrong step after wrong step. Let€™s run through it. The newly reunited Darren Young and Titus O€™Neil didn€™t get an entrance and were in the ring like jobbers. Young never tagged out, taking a beating for the majority of the match. He won on a fluke, rolling Viktor up with a small package, handing the Ascension their first WWE defeat. The Ascension then decimated the Primetime Players. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svk_yDtso4A&index=14 Who does this help elevate? Who should fans care about? The team that lost on a fluke in a heatless match? The reformed team that barely strung together two offensive moves and didn€™t even execute a simple tag? Kudos for trying to add another tag team to the ranks, but this was a horrible lack of planning on WWE€™s part, and no one looked good as a result.
